Philippe Aïni, born in Bordeaux on June 22, 1952, father of three children, suddenly broke with his existence as a pastry worker at the age of 24, to devote himself to creation (mainly paintings and sculptures). Without artistic training, he will invent his art from top to bottom.
For 8 years, alone in his studio, he paints fiercely, seeing very few artists and close friends; nevertheless, his work interests: certain art lovers ask him to exhibit it: Jean-Pierre Roche, in particular, director of the Émergences gallery in Bordeaux, who passionately loves his work, exhibits it on several occasions, thus contributing to the make known in the South-West. Likewise Guy Lafargue who runs the Art Cru gallery in Auch.
Philippe Aïni, unusual creator, totally self-taught painter, free from any cultural influence, rejects any identification with an artistic current.
His artistic career and his notoriety have led him to exhibit in most of the major international cultural scenes.
Aïni's painting uses an unusual ingredient, unusual in the art world: mattress floss, which he uses to serve his expression.
Using this substance mixed with glue like a malleable paste, he made a material of amazing plasticity and will make a considerable contribution to his creation, allowing him to go further, ever further, in the transmission of life ...
Today, the artist works on precious wood (red cedar, mahogany, iroko, rosewood, cedar of Lebanon) in search of unknown expressions which for him carry the meaning of another humanity.
